The black leather is less pliable than other TOAS shoes I have, but these were incredibly comfortable straight out of the box (a rarity for me). The fit is typical for the Rock last, so the size 40 is perfect for my 9.5/10-sized feet. Very versatile on their own, but the two sets of laces make them even more so.

I have been watching these for a while and was concerned about how they would fit. If they would be really stiff initially. Not the case. Great fit! Comfortable from the start.

I love them! Very comfortable right out of the box…Just what I was looking for. An edgy combat boot that looks good with a dress, work pants or jeans!

I thought the patent leather would be stiff before I could break them in but was surprised how soft the leather is. No break in time needed wore them right out of the box and walked all around nyc . Compliments galore. These are my 3rd pair of OOAS shoes. I love them all . If you are on the fence just get them!!!

They are sleek and sophisticated with the black laces, fun and stylish with the yellow/black laces. Comfortable, with no breaking in needed. There was a minor defect in my first pair, but customer service took care of me right away. The sizing is a little different than some brands. I usually wear a EU 41/US 10, but US 10 corresponds to an EU 40 in TOAS. I got the 40, and they fit.
